I've had a guy at work that I've named Norman Bates. For example, people have watched him walked slowly passed me, staring holes in the back of my head. My friend felt dirty for me--I would be happy not knowing the details, but alas!

Well, if you're a flirt and skinny, you can still be classified as being "hot". Another example from my work. A horrible co-worker, but she flirted it up with everyone and looked like a meth user, well, in fact she used to be. It also depends on your confidence around men

A funny note about derogatory names: I always hear white people correct other white people on the use of "Persian" with that saying of "Persian is a rug, not person," and yet every person i know whose is from iran 9and i have several friends who were either born there or are 1st gen US-born and still speak Farsi and everything) always use Persian as an adjective for describing people, food, etc. I don't know where the idea that it's derogatory came from.

I've never heard this. I took Farsi for over a year, have many Persian friends, and dated a Persian girl for a while. Everyone uses Persian to refer to the both the people and the language. Actually, Farsi is not a proper English term (it'd be like calling German Deutsch) but everyone except the teachers/TAs call it that anyway. In the Persian language, Persian people are referred to as Iranians, but I think the reason Persian is preferred here is because people want to distance themselves from the current regime in Iran.

I just found out one of my coworkers might be divorcing after 9 years. He's only a couple months older than I, but I sympathize for him. They've both agreed to visit therapists seperately while mostly living apart.

Question: If someone only gives lip service to Christianity (drinks, smokes, doesn't attend church) and the other has gradually become an Atheist over the last 5 years, do you think it's right to expect them to believe in God as a way to mend the relationship?

He's protective of his virgin taking pussy, even though he used to be active. He mentioned to me he's sort of excited to live alone and be back in the dating scene, despite my cautions to the wind, but he honestly doesn't want it to end. He's even willing to have missionary lessons to see through the hogwash. I feel bad for him in so many ways.

He just needs a disconnect from the everyday, it sounds like he wants to be himself, but also trying to consider feelings. If you don't believe in teh same religion as your partner, problems will arise and you will grow tired of hearing bullshit about praying to fix your problems, when you don't even believe in what you're praying to.
